FYI, google voice search isn't fully compatible with the desire. due to HTC's own phone/message/alarm system

Yeah I'm on a windows machine. What will happen is that the phone will enter the hboot screen, and unrevoked will stay on waiting for bootloader; make sure the drivers are installed! screen. I'm thinking at this point i'm missing a driver, but i've kept the htc driver well deleting htc sync so I"m not exactly sure what it is i'm doing wrong.

Okay this time a driver install for android 1.0 came up but i can't install it, google led me to android sdk which i then installed but still nothing.

they are pretty much the same phone. just one has real buttons. Personally I'd get the desire but I think the look of the nexus one looks better and it has some better accessories (car dock/desktop dock).

Desire has a desktop dock. Not official HTC but a dock nonetheless. For me a car dock is useless so no biggie. Not to mention most Nexus ones are fetching for almost $600 used than a $500 brand new Desire.

I like the look of the nexus one more, and for me trackball> Trackdot thing. However since I finally got the whole custom rom to work and now on 2.2 I most likely will not be changing to a nexus.

Yeah the lag was only there for the first 5minutes or so, when it was asking me if i want htc sense or launcher when you first boot up the phone and it caused massive lag.

Actually the trackball/optical joystick is a total waste to me. I think of it more as an annoyance than being useful. Now if it actually moved a mouse cursor or something on the screen then it'd be useful.

Really? I use it a lot when sending email/text. What keyboard are you guys using? I don't like qwerty and was therefore stuck with the t9 phonepad that came with the desire and i liked it for having a question mark readily available. Now my phone is using what i assume is stock android phonepad and i have to go through a list just to get a question mark. and no chinese input wtf.

HTC IME is what I use the most. Swype isn't bad either but it's not for me.

If you don't like Qwerty, but don't want to use something as archaic as T9, try TouchPal, which has its own version of T9 that is perfect for the screen size of these phones.

It's from China, but does English perfectly well.

Hmm I just flashed last night. I don't think I'll bother unless there's some significant changes/bugfixes.
